Looks like it’s going to be at the Proud Bird. Don’t forget to register, guys. And according to afro legends, it’s BYOS.
With 6 or more of us able to go I think it should be affordable enough, really looking forward to getting some great sessions with everyone in L.A. Thanks for doing all the work on the itinerary Thrust, looks very well planned out.
hey , is anyone having trouble registering on the link fudd submitted ?
iam not using paypal bc i dont have an account but it keeps rejecting my debit and credit card when i try to submit them for the entry fee.
anyone else having the same problem ?
I was able to register but I used paypal. I’m not sure if it allows you to do so without an account, but I’m not completely sure.
yo guys.
I just wanted to pop in and let you know that I’m gonna start posting matches of gameplay in my house because ramnation is down for the count because of the front yeard being redone.
I’m gonna buy a cam this week and start uploading matches. even ST!
Spider-dan and I played ft10 last night and he beat me 10-9 for $$ more to come in the future.
characters that were used.
Spider-dan: O.ken, honda, sim
Tyram: DeeJay, Vega
-RAM
Since Thrust and I are designated drivers, there’s no shotgun calling. Anyone who does, will be dq’ed and wil most likely be forced to sit with the luggage.
Also, BYOD (bring your own diapers). We’re not stopping in the middle of the road so you can take your #1’s and #2’s while we wait.
not going i cant afford taking more time away from school
The double tree that fudd and I stayed last time at revelation (also at proud bird) wasn’t that bad.
Be aware that proud bird most likely will be selling $8 hotdog and $4 soda. (not adjusted for inflation since 2010 )
IIRC there is no fast food within walking distance so you need a car to get food, unless you dig their hotdog that is.
Get the money for norcal guys! Afro legends is out so it is up for grab.

Hi guys! I’m outta town, but I just wanted to send an update.
We have car and hotel booked. We’re staying at the Wyndham on the opposite side of the Proud Bird!
I haven’t been charged by the car rental company yet because I have to add car insurance when I pick it up, so I don’t want to post the cost of everything yet, but please note that everyone’s contribution is still going to be about $100, give or take 20. We may/may not have a 7th person coming.
I’ll post up as things unfold.
Get that practice in, win dat monay!
hey guys , [S]im still having trouble registering[/S] w/o paypal and i dont want to create a paypal account bc i wouldnt use it in the future. can someone help a brotha out ?
if possible can someone front the registration fee on their paypal acc. or card and i’ll pay them first thing when we board the van ?
Edit Geo helped me out w/ this , thanks alot budd !
oh yeah , i can borrow a dual mod stick from my homie for the trip =D
Ok guys, no games.I’m actually trying to win this shit.
- I don’t have a PS3 stick
- I need to practice on this god forsaken platform to get the uppers down properly
So I’m going to GCA this thursday (maybe even wednesday) and I’m gonna play HDR (classic mode ofc) on their viewlix setup. Yes you have to pay $7. But if you can stomach that you should try to join me. Otherwise I’ll be fighting the CPU or something. I just need to get my timing down.
I have no PS3 stick, so I can’t practice at home. I’m gonna grind the next few days on ggpo, then only play on the PS3 version from wednesday on out.
So join me if you can. It would suck if it really amounted to me just sitting there playing against the CPU. But I will do it nonetheless. No matter how insanely bored I get.
I am not dropping an uppercut because I have to play on the stupid ps3. NOPE
If you guys are willing to drive to Daly City, I can host a small session. Thursday would be best. I have the PS3 version but only 1 stick and it’s a bat top.
Hey Ultra I have several ps3 sticks, one of them is a TE that’s as good as new that you can borrow as long as you need to. Just let me know.
JUST PLAY ON GGPO HUEHUEHUE
GGPO is laggy, but I need to play on the EXACT format of the tourney, besides the monitors idk what they’ll use.
That would be perfect, thanks a ton man. Can we meet at caltrain or something?
I’m down, as long as I can borrow a stick from geo beforehand.
Yeah that’s fine what day and time is good for you?
Yo fellas,
Our trip is coming up.
Please check out this map.
(use the bookmarks on the left in the google maps link for the important landmarks.)
[SIZE=3]Is everyone able to meet up at my work or Belmont Cal Train at 1PM on Friday?[/SIZE]
I know Game Center is by San Mateo Cal Train, but we’d have to back track a few more minutes past the 92 freeway.
Belmont Cal Train would save time.
EDIT: We’re also scheduled to hit Don’s Arcade Friday night. It can be a bad 7 to 8 hour drive, so lets try to make it on time!
Also, please don’t forget to bring $100 for your share of the trip. I’ll calculate everything else shortly and will refund/charge more or less as necessary.
Thanks, chums!
i’d rather meet @ your place of work thrust , its just safer and theres guaranteed parking
I’ll go tomorrow after work to the san jose caltrain station. I’m gonna drive to the Menlo Park station from my house. I’ll call you when I’m leaving. I plan to catch the 5:28 PM southbound, which should arrive in SJ at around 6:00 pm. This is all of course if Vestax is really having a session on Thursday, otherwise I’ll just wait until Friday to get the stick.
Looks like a good location, I’ll drive to your office, I’ll be there at 1PM.
Since i’ll be taking the caltrain up from San Jose, the Belmont Cal Train station at that time is good for me.
That’s fine with me, I sent you a pm with my cell number. Just give me a call beforehand and I’ll meet you there.
